The Net Worth Calculator adds up everything you own and subtracts what you owe — and then compares your result against US median net worth by age bracket (Federal Reserve Survey of Consumer Finances). Knowing where you stand against your peer cohort is the missing data point most people don't have, and the median (not the mean) is the honest comparison because the ultra-wealthy skew averages far above what's typical.

Free, private, and no signup

Money Scale is built the opposite way from the big finance sites: the numbers you enter never leave your device, and there's nothing to sign up for.

  • Your numbers stay privateEvery calculation runs in your browser. We never receive or store your salary, balances, or inputs.
  • Always freeNo paywall, no upsell to a calculator that actually works.
  • No login, no emailUse every tool instantly — we never gate results behind a signup.
  • Sourced defaultsStarting rates and assumptions cite real data, not made-up numbers.

How this calculator works

  1. Enter cash holdings (checking, savings, money market).
  2. Enter invested balances (brokerage + 401(k) + IRA + Roth + HSA).
  3. Enter your home's market value (skip if you rent) and any other large assets (car book value, business equity, valuables).
  4. Enter outstanding mortgage principal and consumer debt (credit cards, personal loans, auto, student).
  5. Add any other liabilities (back taxes, family loans, business debt).
  6. Read the result. Liquid net worth (excludes home equity) is often the more useful figure for decisions like 'can I afford to take a sabbatical' since you can't easily spend home equity.

Net Worth = Total Assets − Total Liabilities

The simplest formula in personal finance. Every asset counted at its current market value (not what you paid), every debt at its current payoff balance.

Total Assets
Cash + investments + home value + other assets
Total Liabilities
Mortgage principal + consumer debt + other debt

Frequently asked questions
